Terrible news. And if Milton HS sounds familiar, it's where one time IU offeree and now O$U committment Bruce Thornton attends school. George Mason basketball signee Cameron Walker and one of his Milton High School (Ga.) teammates were arrested Wednesday on murder charges after the October death of 24-year-old Connor Mediate.

Jeff Borzello -

Stumbled across this today. TTBL is a 12-team league headquartered in York, PA. http://triplethreatbasketballleague.com/

Former head coach at UConn Jim Calhoun stepping down immediately as head coach at University of Saint Joseph. https://www.courant.com/sports/college/hc-sp-college-basketball-jim-calhoun-uconn-stjoes-20211119-20211118-t6miqlodhbdfznoc3srfpnm3f4-story.html

Stats don't match up perfectly but another report on Fears most recent game. Samad Hines @Samad_Hines 2023 PG Jeremy Fears Jr. (@jeremy_fears) of La Lumiere (IN) posted 17 points 75% FG, 5 assists, 9 boards, and 2 steals in a win last night. A true PG at 6-foot-1, creates for others, pushes the pace, an elite competitor, and showed he can finish through contact

Confirmed in the game thread it was his left wrist.

You are correct. Woodenshoe just posted a Zach Osterman tweet in the game thread. My bad and I apologize.

No, no, no. You well may be right. But my recollection is seeing his right hand wrapped when he returned to the bench. Does the right hand know what the left hand is doing?

And I'm sure it was his right hand, the same hand/wrist he had problems with in high school.

Rothstein - Ohio State's Justice Sueing will miss an extended period of time due to an abdominal injury, per release. He is expected to return sometime this season. Significant Big Ten news.
